My wife and I purchased a new home in Newell and are planning to have a pool built. We have quotes from 1) Premier pools of Central Florida 2) Premier pool contractor out of Leesburg 3)Waiting for T&D quote. I've heard these are all quality contractors with T&D being the best. Does anyone have an opinion on the other two contractors or another company. Thanks

Before we selected our pool contractor, we did extensive research and determined Jesse Folker of Premier Pool Contractor in Leesburg was the man/company for the job. Other companies provided sketchy timelines and quotes with very few details on equipment. Conversely Jesse and team provided a professional rendering/picture of what our pool would look like in our backyard and a line-item listing of all of the equipment, materials and services that came with the quote. This included things we didn’t think about, like rerouting/capping irrigation lines, 5 pallets of sod to repair our yard, repainting our lanai after the screen framing was removed, sealing our pool decking. Other companies did not provide this level of detail or services. When we asked one company he said, “Oh I have a guy you can contact for that”. Additionally, Jesse gave us a tour of his warehouse. As soon as we signed our contract, they ordered our equipment and put it in a bin separate from any other customer’s bin. They also had a huge whiteboard detailing the status of all of their ongoing projects. Being retired military this level of organization really impressed us. Do your due diligence; ask everyone if their quote includes top of the line equipment and do they repair your yard, fix your irrigation, paint your lanai and do they coordinate with the ARC for approval.
Bottom line Premier under promised and over delivered! Pool looks better than we imagined and it came in on budget and well ahead of schedule. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience!
We can’t thank Jesse, Christie, Scott, Liz, Grande, John, Abby and the entire Premier Pool Contractor team enough for turning our back yard into a tropical paradise!!!

Premier Pools of Central Florida is NOT a franchise. It's a local family owned business. There is a company called Premier Pool and Spas that is a franchise. It's not as old as Premier Pools of Central Florida, and is not as well respected in the area.

Premier Pools of Central Florida did my pool 4 years ago and did a fantastic job. There work is easily as good as T&D. The only advantage T&D has is that all of their workers report to them. Premier has partnerships with contractors for certain portions of their work - they call it a partnership and not a subcontractor because they have been working with the same partners for 25 years. My T&D quote took 3 months longer to get than one from Premier, and the quote was for $30K more. In addition, they quoted the minimum size equipment, not the industry accepted sizing. When I asked to upgrade to same size as what Premier included in their quote, my cost went up another $9K.

Premier Pools of Central Florida took 10 weeks from start of dig to water going in, and their on-going support has been fantastic.
